Sam should hold his own against Roddick as well , I remember watching their match in february and Andy has won in 3 sets but it was pretty close affair . 6-7 4-6 would still do it .
Exactly what happened , Roddick won 7-6 6-4 .
Karlovic has won rather easily , Somdev was plain horrible , tanked this match .

Going to trust Stosur once again . She is the better play on those courts and I am not rating Zheng's win over Safina yesterday at all , plain horrible match . Stosur has easily beaten Ana Ivanovic 6-3 6-2 yesterday and should enjoy a very solid advantage on serve against Zheng who likes to have her first serve percentage at around 65 % mark but the other hand it also makes her serve more predictable and easier to return because she doesn't risk a lot .
If Stosur isn't on a real off day she should have no problem winning this match , not only Zheng is not in good form but she will also be in big power disadvantage .

Vera Zvonareva vs Flavia Pennetta

Flavia Pennetta to win
Odds : 1.72

Again sticking with my horses here .
Pennetta has looked good just as I thought she would against Petrova , dropping her serve just once on the only allowed breakpoint which is very impressive even with Petrova not being in form .
Zvonareva had a tough match yesterday and coming back from an injury I have to question her fitness for this match today and overall motivation .
Even if she is fully fit which I highly doubt , Pennetta is in good form and a tough opponent to play against on any surface . Also she has some points to defend her being the runner up 2008 .
I kind of don't like my position betting at paddypower where the match has to be completed for all bets to stand but those are by far the best odds I could find .
